This book was released on with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In belief functions related fields, the distance measure is an important concept, which represents the degree of dissimilarity between bodies of evidence. Various distance measures of evidence have been proposed and widely used in diverse belief function related applications, especially in performance evaluation. Existing definitions of strict and nonstrict distance measures of evidence have their own pros and cons. In this paper, we propose two new strict distance measures of evidence (Euclidean and Chebyshev forms) between two basic belief assignments based on the Wasserstein distance between belief intervals of focal elements. Illustrative examples, simulations, applications, and related analyses are provided to show the rationality and efficiency of our proposed measures for distance of evidence.

Book Synopsis Belief Functions: Theory and Applications by : Thierry Denoeux
Download or read book Belief Functions: Theory and Applications written by Thierry Denoeux and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of belief functions, also known as evidence theory or Dempster-Shafer theory, was first introduced by Arthur P. Dempster in the context of statistical inference, and was later developed by Glenn Shafer as a general framework for modeling epistemic uncertainty. These early contributions have been the starting points of many important developments, including the Transferable Belief Model and the Theory of Hints. The theory of belief functions is now well established as a general framework for reasoning with uncertainty, and has well understood connections to other frameworks such as probability, possibility and imprecise probability theories. This volume contains the proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Belief Functions that was held in Compiègne, France on 9-11 May 2012. It gathers 51 contributions describing recent developments both on theoretical issues (including approximation methods, combination rules, continuous belief functions, graphical models and independence concepts) and applications in various areas including classification, image processing, statistics and intelligent vehicles.
Book Synopsis Basic belief assignment approximations using 4 degree of non-redundancy for focal element by : Yi YANG
Download or read book Basic belief assignment approximations using 4 degree of non-redundancy for focal element written by Yi YANG and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dempster-Shafer evidence theory, also called the theory of belief function, is widely used for uncertainty modeling and reasoning. However, when the size and number of focal elements are large, the evidence combination will bring a high computational complexity. To address this issue, various methods have been proposed including the implementation of more efficient combination rules and the simplifications or approximations of Basic Belief Assignments (BBAs). In this paper, a novel principle for approximating a BBA into a simpler one is proposed, which is based on thed egree of non-redundancy for focal elements.

Various topics have been addressed in this Special Issue, which focuses on the design of sustainable production systems and factories; industrial big data analytics and cyberphysical systems; intelligent maintenance approaches and technologies for increased operating life of production systems; zero-defect manufacturing strategies, tools and methods towards online production management; and connected smart factories.
Book Synopsis A novel decision probability transformation method based on belief interval by : Zhan Deng
Download or read book A novel decision probability transformation method based on belief interval written by Zhan Deng and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dempster–Shafer evidence theory, the basic probability assignment (BPA) can effectively represent and process uncertain information. How to transform the BPA of uncertain information into a decision probability remains a problem to be solved. In the light of this issue, we develop a novel decision probability transformation method to realize the transition from the belief decision to the probability decision in the framework of Dempster–Shafer evidence theory. The newly proposed method considers the transformation of BPA with multi-subset focal elements from the perspective of the belief interval, and applies the continuous interval argument ordered weighted average operator to quantify the data information contained in the belief interval for each singleton. Afterward, we present an approach to calculate the support degree of the singleton based on quantitative data information. According to the support degree of the singleton, the BPA of multi-subset focal elements is allocated reasonably. Furthermore, we introduce the concepts of probabilistic information content in this paper, which is utilized to evaluate the performance of the decision probability transformation method. Eventually, a few numerical examples and a practical application are given to demonstrate the rationality and accuracy of our proposed method.

Book Synopsis Advances and Applications of DSmT for Information Fusion (Collected Works. Volume 5) by : Florentin Smarandache
Download or read book Advances and Applications of DSmT for Information Fusion (Collected Works. Volume 5) written by Florentin Smarandache and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2023-12-27 with total page 932 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fifth volume on Advances and Applications of DSmT for Information Fusion collects theoretical and applied contributions of researchers working in different fields of applications and in mathematics, and is available in open-access. The collected contributions of this volume have either been published or presented after disseminating the fourth volume in 2015 (available at fs.unm.edu/DSmT-book4.pdf or www.onera.fr/sites/default/files/297/2015-DSmT-Book4.pdf) in international conferences, seminars, workshops and journals, or they are new. The contributions of each part of this volume are chronologically ordered. First Part of this book presents some theoretical advances on DSmT, dealing mainly with modified Proportional Conflict Redistribution Rules (PCR) of combination with degree of intersection, coarsening techniques, interval calculus for PCR thanks to set inversion via interval analysis (SIVIA), rough set classifiers, canonical decomposition of dichotomous belief functions, fast PCR fusion, fast inter-criteria analysis with PCR, and improved PCR5 and PCR6 rules preserving the (quasi-)neutrality of (quasi-)vacuous belief assignment in the fusion of sources of evidence with their Matlab codes. Because more applications of DSmT have emerged in the past years since the apparition of the fourth book of DSmT in 2015, the second part of this volume is about selected applications of DSmT mainly in building change detection, object recognition, quality of data association in tracking, perception in robotics, risk assessment for torrent protection and multi-criteria decision-making, multi-modal image fusion, coarsening techniques, recommender system, levee characterization and assessment, human heading perception, trust assessment, robotics, biometrics, failure detection, GPS systems, inter-criteria analysis, group decision, human activity recognition, storm prediction, data association for autonomous vehicles, identification of maritime vessels, fusion of support vector machines (SVM), Silx-Furtif RUST code library for information fusion including PCR rules, and network for ship classification. Finally, the third part presents interesting contributions related to belief functions in general published or presented along the years since 2015. These contributions are related with decision-making under uncertainty, belief approximations, probability transformations, new distances between belief functions, non-classical multi-criteria decision-making problems with belief functions, generalization of Bayes theorem, image processing, data association, entropy and cross-entropy measures, fuzzy evidence numbers, negator of belief mass, human activity recognition, information fusion for breast cancer therapy, imbalanced data classification, and hybrid techniques mixing deep learning with belief functions as well. We want to thank all the contributors of this fifth volume for their research works and their interests in the development of DSmT, and the belief functions. We are grateful as well to other colleagues for encouraging us to edit this fifth volume, and for sharing with us several ideas and for their questions and comments on DSmT through the years.
